naptha (lighter fluid) will remove all the rainx on your glass. You can also try rubbing alcohol or dishwashing soap.

If you're getting glare, you're not getting it all off. It takes a lot of rubbing. I normally fold a paper towel in 1/4's, use all 4 sides on 1/2 of the windsheild, do the same on the other side, then take a clean one and go over it all again. The biggest problem is when you miss an area the first time, then go back and spread it all around again. It takes some work to get it right (clean), but it does work really well.
